So You Get The Cheap Travel To Mexico, What's Next… A Guide To Mexico Travel!

By Larry Evans

You finally received your tickets to Mexico at the cheapest
price. You did it by researching and taking your time comparing
and eliminating online and offline travel companies and agent
one by one. You also got your desired hotel accommodation and
itineraries that did not cost so much. Now, while you are
packing your things and make your way to the airport, here are
some of the things and necessary advises you should know before
entry, upon entry, and while at the Mexico:

Before you leave, you should have with you a photo I.D. such as
passport and driver's license, your tourist card, and your proof
of citizenship. Bringing a photo I.D. would save you a lot of
trouble when you check in on the airport. It would make sure
that your ticket and your identity match.

The tourist card is your gate pass to Mexico. It is given free
of charge but should be surrendered when you leave the country.
You can get it from your airline when you check-in or in the
Mexican Immigration when you arrive the country. You must not
lose it and must be included at your travel document. Loosing
this card is not pretty good thing to happen but if it does,
make sure you have copied the number. This would make the
trouble a lot easier to deal with.

Proof of citizenship should be your birth certificate. If you
are a married woman and posses a driver's license of your maiden
name, be sure to bring your birth certificate to match the
license.

Upon arrival, go directly to the Mexican Immigration. Here,
your tourist card is validated and proof of citizenship is
inspected. You must sign and accomplish the customs declaration
form. You should know what to declare and what are allowable to
bring in the country. If you failed to declare any item that are
not allowed you will be penalized.

Here are some of the allowable items you can bring; toiletries,
footwear, and clothing that is in relation to your trip
duration, reading material (magazine and books), used sports
equipment, one VCR, one camera, one movie camera, films (up to
12 rolls), 3L of wine or alcohol (18 years up and up), 50 cigars
or 400 cigarettes (18 years old and up), musical instrument,
portable TV, and medicines with prescription.

While at Mexico you should obey the rules. If you plan to rent
a car, there are lots of car rental companies in the country. It
you are on a tight budget, rent a car before you arrive. Rental
companies offer cheap rate if you reserve early. When you get
involved in an accident, do not leave the place nor make any
arrangements to other people. Contact your rental company for
assistance. Do not argue.

Bring the right amount of money for the day. Although Mexico
uses their Peso, most business establishments accept US dollars.
But peso would still give you better price. Wear comfortable
clothes, Mexico is typically warm during summer and a bit cold
during winter. But it still depends of your location that
depends on the altitude.

When dining, make sure you drink only bottled water. Wash the
fruits first before eating. Peel if necessary.

When traveling by bus, take the first class rather than the
second class. First class is air-conditioned with slight price
difference with the second.

These are some of the things you need to know when you travel
to Mexico. And to enjoy more your whole visit in the country:
stay safe!
